Hopefully they will come back to Nigeria at some point and make it great, or great again.

Nigeria is really an African success story. Hard to tell but it's pretty based or at least well on it's way. But China will fuck it up.

That's why we got to make sure China and all of it's networks are completely destroyed. And we need to keep kicking them when they are lying on the ground hurt. Communist China deserves to go to hell.

Nigeria is really an African success story.

What about the civil war(s?) between the North and the South in the country, between Muslims and Christians as far as I recall, including massacres? And maybe 50%+ Muslims? And I have heard about daily blackouts in the country, including in their capital. They also aren't doing well GDP-wise per capita. They have very many people and have experienced an extreme population growth the last many decades, but apart from that, I don't know really see how it can be seen as a success story. Relative to other Sub-Saharan African countries (though that seems like a very low bar to set)? Though I would love to be enlightened.

Yeah, dude, the bar is fuckin' low.

I remember talking to a woman of Indian descent that grew up there. She quipped about the TV stations going black out random and she knew that meant there was a coup. She still loves the people of Nigeria but wished they'd drop the Marxist bullshit. Africa IS a communists wet dream. It's what they want the world to be. A wasteland of human despair.

But... why would you then describe Nigeria as "really an African success story."? Or that "it's pretty based or at least well on it's [sic] way"? Of course, reg. the first part, you might have meant that it is a success story relatively to other Sub-Saharan African countries, but apart from its size... what success does it have? It still has 50%+ Muslims, the divide between Muslims and Christians, as well as terror attacks and massacres.
